Before Time Was

"Before Time Was" explains the origins of the God and Goddess.

 

Before time was, there was The One,
      The One was all, and all was The One
 
And the vast expanse of the Universe was The One,
      All wise, all pervading, all powerful, externally changing.
 
And space moved.
The One moulded energy into twin form, equal but opposite, fashioning the Goddess and God from The One and of The One.
 
The Goddess and The God stretched and gave thanks to The One,
         But darkness surrounded them.
They were alone, save for The One.
 
So they formed energy into gases, and gases into sun, and planets, and moons;
        They sprinkled the Universe with whirling globes and so all was given shape by the hands of the Goddesss and the God.
 
Light arose and the sky was illuminated by a billion suns.
        The Goddess and the God, satisfied by their work, rejoiced and loved, and were one.
 
From their union sprang the seeds of all life,
        and the human race, so that we might achieve incarnation upon the Earth.
 
The Goddess chose the Moon as her symbol,
        and the God chose the Sun as his to remind the inhabitants of Earth of their creators.
 
All are born, live, die and are reborn beneath the Moon and Sun;
         All things come to pass thereunder, and all occurs with the blessing of The One.
        The Goddess and the God, as he has been the way of existence since Before Time Was.
